Report looks at parts of Maine with most seasonal tourist spots

A study released in February by the Maine Development Foundation explores the possibility of growing Maine’s tourism revenue pie by picking up more traffic in the “shoulder season” of May, September and October. “Lengthening the season could help businesses that cater to tourists sustain more consistent revenues throughout the year, and provide more reliable year-round job opportunities to hospitality workers,” states the report written by University of Maine economics professor Todd Gabe.
